Bruce the Cat picture book
In this image, Kate has just returned home with the kitten.
I've finally finished all the illustrations for the Bruce the Cat picture book!

The children's book is a fictionalised account of how I found my famous cat Bruce. In the book it is a young girl called Kate who finds Bruce and takes him home. The illustrations are based on real places in Port Chalmers, Dunedin. 

The images are currently being scanned, and I am working on a publishing plan, and a Kickstarter funding plan, as we speak!

Excuse all the exclamation marks, but it is very exciting. 

!!!!!!!!!

Stay tuned for updates!

    My short fiction has been published in Headland, Hue and Cry, Pot Roast and Aerodrome. I'm an award-winning playwright and zine creator, and my play Indiscretions was published by Playmarket. I have contributed articles and creative non-fiction to The Spinoff, The Sunday Star Times, The NZ Herald and more. I also manage the social media for my cat Bruce, and I wrote and illustrated a children's book, Bruce Finds A Home, based on his exploits.

    I am also hoping to put the power of the pen to good use by advocating for better miscarriage information and support. Click here for details.
